I can see a symbiotic relationship between large rightsholders and AI-related industries developing, perhaps where they license their corpus to be trained on, and maybe even share rights/profits/etc with AI companies when it comes to commercial use of the AI's output. In such a world, human creators would be paid a pittance by large rightsholders to create, and then those rightsholders would license those creations to be trained on, and then the human would be cut out of the loop for subsequent creations. In this world, creators wouldn't be much different than the data labelers that currently tag ML datasets. They'd probably be paid the same, as well.
